Not sure if this has been noted elsewhere FindMyPast have now given us the opportunity to search ALL the UK census records by address. Originally only available on the 1911, 1901 and the 1939 Register, the facility has now been extended to 1841 to 1911.

However, the only way to access this new facility is via the A-Z list.

From the current issue, December 2017, of Leicestershire & Rutland Family History Society newsletter:

"The burial records in the Records Office (Wigston) ceased in 1886. After contacting the vicar, who was very helpful and was adamant that the records had been submitted to the Records Office. I went to the Office but found nothing in the microfiche drawers. I spoke to a staff member, who checked to see if they had gone to FindMyPast but they had not. He then looked elsewhere and found that the records were in their storeroom. Store number for these burials is DE7633/1."

As part of my transcribing for FreeBMD, I have come across something a little strange.

Because it is Marriages in 1969, I won't give the names.

I have two entries for the same person - one in Taunton District and the other in Wells District. Both page numbers are identical. I have cross-checked for the partner, and again there are two entries in Taunton and Wells and, of course, identical page numbers.

I did wonder whether the two Districts merged, but both are in existence until 1974.
